company-yasnippet-autoparens

A company-mode script for auto-parenthesis

What problem does company-yasnippet-autoparens solve?

Most of completion systems for Emacs do not support automatic parentheses. For example, by default, when typing add-ho, the completion list will show add-hook instead of (add-hook). This is sometimes annoying. The company-yasnippet-autoparens solves the problem, it can make add-hook - > (add-hook) appear in the completion list.

Demo

1. Any text input, a parentheses version will be added to the completion list.

2. It can combine various backends, e.g. dabbrev.

3. Some other examples that combine with yasnippet.

Note that company-yasnippet-autoparens supports any s-exp languages, not just Elisp. It even can support non s-exp languages, if using company-yasnippet-autoparens-2.el.

4. Non s-exp languages.
